Heretical Realities

Energized Hypnosis

I have to admit, I'm very impressed with this short book by Dr. Hyatt. I've never been a huge fan of traditional hypnosis, neither the masculine or feminine style. I've always believed hypnosis to be lacking certain fundamentals - a lack of psychological depth, engagement of only the mental and congitive parts of the being.

Dr. Hyatt overcame those concerns for me with this little book. He clearly has an understanding of the importance of engaging the entire being - cognitive, emotional, physical and energetic - to facilitate real and lasting change. And he has a deep understanding of the fundamentals of psychology, the unconscious mind and the reason we are how we are and why we generally want to stay that way even when we consciously profess a desire to change.

Though he calls the book an un-book and does his best to include exercises throughout to fully egage the reader beyond the mere mental act of reading, the book falls somewhat short of his claims. However I believe this to be a shortcoming of the medium, not the message.

Dr. Hyatt expands on the book in several CDs and DVDs that are considerably more interactive and more fully engaging.

This book gives an excellent introduction to his concept of energized hypnosis and is a great way to learn about an effective method of self-transformation. The actual doing of the self-transformation requires a slightly higher investment of money and time, but that is always the case.

A merely intellectual understanding is never the same as a direct experience. This book is the first. Try it. If you like it, move into the more interactive material to experience the power of the technique Dr. Hyatt has developed.
